Best radar detector at the under-$300 price.

Euro X50 boasts an excellent price-performance ratio, since sensitivity can align to even several times more expensive devices.

This is my second Escort. I have gotten one speeding ticket while using my Escort radar detector, however, I feel it has kept me from getting more.

Escort quality

This detector was an upgrade of an older one I had. The Escort Passport 8500 works great and has all the functions you need.

Unacceptable number of false positives

on December 28, 2014

Posted by: Subho

Verified Purchase:Yes

I used to own an Escort Passport 7500 and this seemed to be a good replacement for it. But it was a total disappointment. In the course of a 650 mile trip it "cried wolf" so many times that we ended up unplugging it. With my 7500, anytime there were short intense blips of K band, it meant that there was a handheld radar being used somewhere ahead. But with this 8500, it did that short bursts all the time for entire stretches as along as 12 miles, with not a bogey in sight. I tried going into city mode to see if it would clear up the clutter and it did not. Also the device would switch between dim and bright mode by itself.
I returned it the next day. I am not sure if the one i got was bad or Escort is starting to produce junk. I will probably try a V1 and see if it works

Husband was excited

on December 30, 2014

Posted by: Tbest

Verified Purchase:Yes

He was thrilled to receive this. He has an older model and likes it very much. Haven't used it much yet do I can't speak to its performance but it arrived as expected and I know my husband is a big fan of this brand. He's the kind of person that researches items and always goes for quality over price. So it has his seal of approval
